[MindTheGamePod] Steve Nash: “Yeah, you’ve got White Boy Wednesday and Monday. We’re gonna have to diversify.” LeBron James: “Yeah, I’m telling you, we’ve gotta get Luke Kornet next to talk about Magic City.”
MindTheGame then: no one wants to talk X’s and O’s. Here’s a breakdown of every individual play from this year’s finals and why it worked against that defensive look
MindTheGame now: Luke Kornet James Harden 1on1 Magic City debate next week at 9pm
Ex’s and hoes
Goddamn, trademark that
Aight, that was clever as hell
fk that’s good lol
You win today
lol
Obligatory you win the Internet for today
Somebody award this man, please!
EDIT: nvm I figured it out
Harden’s BBL-IQ off the charts
Am I the only one that prefers LeBron talk about random shit/drama mixed w the ball talk more than last years version.
They talked about plays more yeah but like mostly simple stuff anyways. This more entertaining imo
Has it really gone downhill? I only watched the first few episodes (season?) and thought it was great.
Its march theyre kind of just running out of things to talk about. Im sure when playoffs start it’ll pick back up, especially if Bron has a first round exit
Its gone uphill.
All due respect, I loved the X and O talk too, but I definitely enjoyed the banter more.
It’s fun to hear legends analyze the game. It’s way more entertaining to listen to them talk shit and reminisce, giving us insight into games or plays we watched “back in the day.”
Yes, if LeBron is old, that means we who watched him playing live are also old. “Back in the day” is accurate.
I would watch the fuck out of that
Magic City wings with XO sauce
This guys is like “Imagine Magic City but it’s all white bois”. LeFreaky
Femboys Hooters, the promised land

It’s real and it’s in West Hollywood
The strength of schedule when you gotta hit The Abbey, Mickey’s, and Rocco’s in one night.
Lol so true

It is a little sus he went from JJ to Steve. Next season podcast co-host will either be Kevin Love or Kyle Korver if this trend continues.
He’ll take Steve to Cleveland with him next season and find a new podcast partner
Don’t you dare sabotage Kenny. As a Cavs fan, he’s had his ups and downs this year but he has the support of the team. Also, didn’t the nets get rid of Kenny last time for Nash? Not again!
Lmao can you imagine if Atkinson gets kicked out of a coaching job by a superstar for Steve Nash twice
Then we could say “If I had a nickel for every time Kenny Atkinson got replaced by Steve Nash, I’d have 2 nickels! Which isn’t alot but it’s weird that it happened twice!” lol
If Wizards HC is any hot seat i can see Nash going there cause trae wanted Nash when we signed snyder
He probably does have an ‘archetype’ of the show that he prefers in his mind
yes, Wiggly guys of a less-melinated variety.
Every other NBA podcast also has a white sidekick, it’s just that Lebron’s white sidekicks are actual former NBA players instead of randos no one cares about.
Yeah people hate on the formula but you gotta get a regular guy that 90% of the viewers can relate to. A scrawny average height white dude that is more passionate about the NBA than the NBA player but you can’t take seriously bc he’s a fan just like the rest of us at the end of the day.
It’s always funny to me when this sub slams Stephen A but regurgitates a lot of his slander too lol like SAS had this exact take to claim there’s something off about LBJ going JJ to Steve Nash. And here yall are.
A broken clock is right twice a day
Mike Miller
Mike Miller would mention James Naismith at least once an episode. “It’s called basketball.”
it’s a partnership with amazon and steve nash was already with prime. jj’s pod was also with amazon
LeBron has a type
What’s wrong with that?
Kornet might not ever live that Magic City situation down.
What is there to be ashamed of? I’ll take Kornet’s side over Draymond trying to say it’s “art” like he’d be a proud dad if his daughter took up a career in stripping.
I mean once again, it was just wings and a hoodie. And more crucially it was about celebrating the culture of Atlanta’s hip hop scene that Magic City is integral to. And I’m sorry I don’t like religious values being weaponized. Which is becoming all too common in this country.

That’s a pretty reductive characterization as to why people were actually opposed to the event. People were opposed to it because it was an NBA team doing a full blown promotional blitz for a strip club, including a live podcast on the court with the owner of the club, when the league is ostensibly supposed to be a family-friendly organization. I dont have anything against stripping as a profession or people going to strip clubs for fun, but it’s certainly not what the majority of people would consider a family-friendly enterprise.
And more crucially it was about celebrating the culture of Atlanta’s hip hop scene that Magic City is integral to.
Not everyone in Atlanta is onboard with broadcasting out to the world that strip clubs are an integral part of our culture. There are a thousand better more positive things that I would rather be associated with the city than that. Not only that, but as a predominantly black city in a predominantly black league I can understand why they didn’t want to lean into the negative stereotype that black people uniquely love strip clubs, which is an aspect of the promotion that many of those upset about its cancellation may not have considered.
And I’m sorry I don’t like religious values being weaponized.
He didn’t even mention his faith in the letter. You don’t have to be a christian to agree with the arguments he made against it.
It’s as family friendly as DraftKings and fanduel imo
I don’t disagree with you on that, I wish more players spoke out against gambling too. NBA is hypocritical for that but doesn’t necessarily invalidate the arguments against the Magic City promotion.
My dude said it was about celebrating ATL’s hip hop culture
💀
Im not religious. I enjoy strip clubs. It was a dumb idea.
It’s not a “religious value” to not want a strip club being promoted at a family event.
I think there’s a time and a place, idk if an NBA game is really the place given all the kids and families who go to those games. I think him making it a religious angle is lame though
1-0 against strip clubs, Harden could never
Wdym? He was right, and he won.
also Kornet gets clowned on cause he talked about it publicly but this was obviously not a very popular idea among other NBA stakeholder’s once it was announced, otherwise it probably would have gone forward. Clearly he wasn’t the only one that had reservations.
Good

“we’ll slam the laptop on that”.
Such an unseasoned version of Boy we out the mud

Bron getting freaky
LeGrandfather mode activated 👌🏾
LeShoehorn
He’s gotta be pissed that Dalton didn’t work out as his next white guy companion
What do you mean? They are going to retire together..
Kornet is a man of the people and deserves to be on the pod
He’s of LeWine
Do it up
Do you think AR ever thought he’d be in this situation surrounded by legends when he was still playing in highschool in his small ass town? Kind of crazy
I thought Wednesday was Wagon Wednesday
get Derrick White to talk about his other conspiracies
Why LeBron so pressed about it
”” - only guy who is pressed about it
Seriously fuck Luke kornet
They’re like “blah blah blah racist stuff 😂😂😂😂😂” very weird behaviour.
I swear y’all don’t even know what racism is anymore
[deleted]
Big bro can’t explain what he sees. Shocking
It’s pretty straight forward
The weird behavior is being white and being offended by this lol
